i feel like i’m sharing space now. there is definitely a complete human in there. i feel big parts rammed up against my side frequently. either head or butt takes up a lot of space now. plus, hiccups occasionally (rhythmic bounces) and still occasional little flutters. but mostly big sweeping movements and shifts from one …

🙂 i am feeling about 1000 times better. glad i dealt with it instead of waiting for it to go away in its own sweet time. the pain enough to need vicodin and the bleeding only lasted the rest of friday. since then, i’ve been feeling almost normal. and just extremely relieved. i love love …

**caution- the following material is rather graphic and gross and is only intended for mature audiences. …………………………………………………………………………………………………………… so, before i fall into a vicodin-induced coma, complete with drooling and snoring and occasional twitching and grimacing, let me tell you about my butt misadventures this week. all day monday i felt like i had something uncomfortable …
